“Later, as he sat on his balcony eating the dog, Dr. Robert Laing reflected on the unusual events that had taken place within this huge apartment building during the previous three months.”

… And so goes the opening sentence of J.G. Ballard’s acclaimed 1975 dystopian novel HIGH-RISE, faithfully adapted by one of the most innovative British directors in decades, Ben Wheatley (KILL LIST, SIGHTSEERS, A FIELD IN ENGLAND), for the screen. Tom Hiddleston stars as Dr. Robert Laing, the newest resident of a luxurious apartment in a high-tech concrete skyscraper whose lofty location places him amongst the upper class. Laing quickly settles into high society life and meets the building’s eccentric tenants: Charlotte (Sienna Miller), his upstairs neighbor and bohemian single mother; Wilder (Luke Evans), a charismatic documentarian who lives with his pregnant wife Helen (Elisabeth Moss); and Mr. Royal (Jeremy Irons), the enigmatic architect who designed the building. Life seems like paradise to the solitude-seeking Laing. But as power outages become more frequent and building flaws emerge, particularly on the lower floors, the regimented social strata begins to crumble and the building becomes a battlefield in a literal class war.

“Ben Wheatley’s J.G. Ballard adaptation, starring an insouciant, debonair Tom Hiddleston, serves up orgiastic mayhem on a silver platter.” – The Telegraph

“Batshit crazy. Don’t expect a thriller in the seat-edge sense, but you will be thrilled — and repulsed — by this bold, faithful adaptation of Ballard’s ever-prescient picture of First World strife.” – Empire Magazine

“A vicious, surreal satire. Wheatley is one of the most interesting filmmakers to come out of the United Kingdom in ages.”- Rolling Stone

“… a screaming good time, replete with baroque dialogue and Marxist undertones so heavy they might just be tones.” – ScreenCrush
